We ensure more young people from diverse backgrounds enter higher education, in particular attend the best universities, to study science, tech, maths and engineering - much needed skills for the UK economy. Our sessions, such as 'Mission to Mars', demonstrate how STEM subjects are applied to solve real world (and out of this world!) issues. These sessions engage and motivate young people, which we follow up with practical support and academic tutoring to ensure potential is fulfilled!

The earlier a child with hearing impairment receives help, the more likely it is that they will learn to communicate verbally. Our deaf club is the only place in St Petersburg which helps babies as young as 4 months. Just as importantly, their parents are supported as they come to terms with their child's disability and learn how to lobby for treatment and education for their child. As a result many of "our" children go on to join mainstream kindergartens.
